I am proud to say that he is a minister in my denomination (Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and that I have had the pleasure to hear me preach a couple of times. I hope that his health holds up and he can continue to do this much needed work of speaking truth to power and preaching the REAL GOSPEL not the prosperity gospel (heresy) of the Reich Wing.

We try to live out Matthew 25 -- help the poor, the homeless, the sick, the imprisoned.

Maybe just maybe -- Manchin will too, someday -- I can always hope.
